They took the county to the left - with work, effort and planning. And we can take the country to the right - with work, effort and planning.

Here’s the advantage we have - we actually have the American people with us. They did it with tricks and illusions.

...we actually have the American people with us...

I fear than the majority of American are not in our camp. The reeducation has had a profound affect on the young people. My youngest brother is a rank liberal. It isn't possible for me to converse with him without him resorting to voluminous vulgar diatribe against me and conservatives. He isn't rational, and he is typical.

I am not sure today's Patriots have the will, courage, and stamina to do what is necessary to right this situation. Repairs cannot be accomplished through the political process.

Unfurtunately it doesn't work that way. Liberty can be destroyed one small step at a time but it cannot be restored that way.

An article V convention is the only option outside of brute force.

“Here’s the advantage we have - we actually have the American people with us. They did it with tricks and illusions.”

I respectfully disagree. I wish with all my heart that you were right but it’s not so. The American people are the sole reason that we find ourselves in this mess. Our youth; have no idea what freedom is. They have never experienced it or been taught about it in school. They have all been indoctrinated into Socialism. Another huge segment(47% and rising)is living off the government’s dole and are not about to do anything or oppose anything that might make them lose it. On top of that, they are so dumbed down as to civic responsibility; they wouldn’t know how if they wanted to.

Another huge segment is not American, has no interest, blood, effort or allegance other than personal and material gain in America’s well being and freedoms. Obama is importing as many of these as he possibly can because they are the most useful to his agenda.

That leaves a comparative handful of mostly aging, fiercely loyal, unorganized patriots who will no doubt die fighting for an America that doesn’t exist anymore except in their hearts and memories. Other nations that have been threatened as we are today had strong allies(the strongest of which was us.) We have none. Besides; we are feeding the opposing enemy within with our own sustenance every day in the form of exhorbitant taxes to feed the oppossing army. It’s a no win situation.

I take heart from my faith; not in people but in G-d. He caused a guide book to be written for us that love and serve him that pretty much fortells all of present day events. America prospered and thrived as long as we gave him the credit. It began to fail when we forgot.

I truly hope that we have time to mend our nation and that your optimmism is rewarded. I would love to be wrong.

I see no evidence whatsoever of any organized fight to move the nation politically to the right. None whatsoever.

Meanwhile, the Leftist forces of evil are more entrenched, more mobilized, more well structured, more hard working, and more focused than ever. They smell blood in the water and are going for the jugular before conservatives can possibly mobilize.

But as I said, I don’t see any evidence that conservatives will mobilize at the highest levels of politics and wealth necessary to reverse the leftist control of the schools, the unions, Hollyweird, the various minority groups, Universities. They are not just in politics anymore. They are in all levels of civil service management, Directors running the agencies. They will be implementing Agenda 21 at all levels of government in every agency.

What does do conservatives have to oppose this?

Nothing. The rich conservatives aren’t funding conservative grass roots competition at the rank and file level to be teachers and journalists and activists. They are just interested in making more money, which is fine. I don’t fault them at all. But it is not how to win this lost culture war against the left.

I love your optimism, but I see no appreciable movement on the part of Conservatives to take back this nation, other than a few talkers talking about how we need to do so, and a few very marginalized conservative Republicans who are opposed by the GOP-e every step of the way.
